A MULTI-METHOD APPROACH TO MEASUREMENT OF RESPIRATORY SYSTEM MECHANICS
Journal Title: Metrology and Measurement Systems - Year 2006, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
A multi-method system developed for complex investigations of lung mechanics is described. The system includes complementary measurement techniques such as forced oscillations, interrupter technique, methods for measurement of pulmonary mechanics during artificial ventilation and spirometry. These techniques are completed by computational models enabling an analysis of the relation between the lung structure, function, pathology and measurement results. This set-up is a first step towards a new-quality approach to research into the respiratory system via multi-method fusion.
